Description:
When starting the MySQL Administrator from the Query Browser or vice-versa it doesn't use a passwort to connect to the db even if set in the connection tab. Store Passwords is set in General Options and the method is Obscured.

How to repeat:
install Administrator, install Query Browser, set a connection in the Administrator, select store password in the general options and method obscured, connect and try to launch the query browser from within the administrator - it will use no password to connect and therefor fail.

Suggested fix:
use a password to connect..
